Margarete Lauter (1967)

Margarete Lauter (9 September 1925 in Büchenbronn/Pforzheim; 2 October 2004 in Mannheim) was a German art dealer[1] with the first Art Gallery for international contemporary art established in 1963 in Mannheim (Germany) after the Second World War 1945 mainly presenting works by German, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Romanian, Belgian, Hungarian, Israeli, Slovenian, Austrian and US artists.[2]

Life

Margarete Vetter grew up as the daughter of a farming family with 4 siblings. Her mother promoted her early on with cultural activities. In the late years of the Second World War she met the young architect Harro Lauter (October 17, 1919 - October 5, 1996), whom she married in 1948. After spending 3 years in her father-in-law's parental home in Hoffenheim / Sinsheim (Germany), her husband was appointed architect in 1952 to the Mannheim Building Authority. In 1963, in collaboration with the Mannheim and Paris based artist Rudi Baerwind and the Galerie Paul Facchetti Paris[3], she opened the first gallery for international contemporary art after the Second World War in Mannheim.[4] The couple had three children. The youngest son, Rolf Lauter, grew up in his mother's gallery in the 1960s, became assistant curator and curator at the gallery and has been appointed later as museum director.

From 1996 she retired to private rooms for 4 years after her husband passed away, focusing on smaller exhibitions and art consulting. Finally in 2000 she reopened a gallery space at Friedrichsplatz 15 to conduct art trading in a reduced form. Lauter ended her gallery activities in spring 2003, after 40 years of successful work, in which she was able to build up numerous new private collections.

  4. ^ Earlier than Lauter Rudolf Probst was an important art dealer in Mannheim, who dealt with works of classical modernism in Germany before and during the Nazi era. He opened his first gallery for classical Modern Art in Mannheim in August 1945, right after the end of the war, after working as an art dealer in Dresden in the Emil Richter art store (1918-1923) and managing the gallery "Neue Kunst Fides" from 1923-1933. His gallery, in which he had shown works by Emil Nolde, Lyonel Feininger, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, László Moholy-Nagy, Otto Dix, Max Beckmann and Oskar Kokoschka, was closed by the National Socialists in 1933. Probst acquired the Kunsthaus Tannenbaum from Herbert Tannenbaum (1892–1958) a short time later in Mannheim, but also came into conflict with the National Socialists here immediately. After an exhibition of Emil Nolde's works in the summer of 1937, Probst had to forego the presentation and public sale of art accused to show "degenerated art". The Kunsthaus was destroyed in air raids on Mannheim in 1943. From 1945 to 1958 Probst operated his gallery first in Otto-Beck-Straße and from 1949 in Mannheimer Schloss. Probst offered numerous artists of classical modernism after the war and succeeded in conveying important works to German museums.
